‘Sensing Element’
An Engineeringtalk guide
Start with the news release
HT Servo motor has integrated microstepping driver from
HT Servo , which we summarised at the time by saying "HT Servo has released its improved Silverpak 23D Plus, a high-torque NEMA 23-step motor with an integrated microstepping driver. ".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release Pam-Comfort helps Renault design new seat from
ESI Group: "Renault has used ESI's Pam-Comfort system for the preliminary design of a new seat.".
In November 2009, we covered the news from R+W Coupling Technology
- take a look at R+W couplings have heavy-duty torque ratings
which says: "R+W has introduced BK3 couplings with heavy-duty torque ratings and high-strength conical clamping hubs for high-torque servo gearboxes. ".
Take a look also at the news release from NEi Software, NEi adds explicit dynamics to simulation software,
as well as IFM PMD camera sees in three dimensions at once from IFM Electronic,
and Educational package models material responses from Field Precision.
